A couple days before this thread started I had culled helmet heads out of it... I'm cussing myself about the timing of this thread and that I hadn't paid closer attention... I remember that just about all of the helmet heads in the flat were from a mix of varieties that has only grown one year in my garden (Brandywine types).
